Beauty & Essex has an innovative design that starts in the restaurant’s entrance, a well-curated modern-day pawn shop replete with a saxophone, boombox, quirky artifacts, vintage treasures, and an eclectic array of “one-off” pieces of jewelry. Continuing past the pawnshop, guests encounter a grand, circular staircase wrapped around a two-story custom chandelier, but only the adventurous will discover all that Beauty & Essex has to offer. With four distinct dining rooms (one private), two bars, a lounge, and a women’s bathroom complete with a salon including a luxurious sofa, and antique perfume bottles. The cuisine, much like the design, is intended to set a new course. Chef Chris Santos was one of the pioneers of the small, share plate dining trend that has swept the nation, and with the Beauty & Essex menu, he once again has created waves on the food scene.

I made reservations a month ahead of our scheduled time to visit New York and had no issues so that. Once I wanted to call and confirm a few days prior to the reservation, no one answered the phone. I also called the day of the reservation and no answer. The ambiance was great! The seating felt tight, but luckily we were in a booth in the corner. We definitely had to shift the table around to get inside the booth. Once in the though, it was comfortable as there was enough table space. The service could have been better. The server sold the menu to us and forgot our cocktails and failed to keep water on rhthe table. He didn’t check on us really after we got our food. The food was good and the portions were definitely enough for 2-3 people easily. For reference, we shared in our party of 3 the calamari as an appetizer with the stuffed salmon, rigatoni, and surf & turf for our entrees. Great food but service was not up to par.
